Default Why don't drink drivers cars get impounded?

Why don’t drink drivers cars get impounded – why do they get off lightly when they are such a high risk?
The government goes on and on and on about Hoon Laws – they keep on bringing in harsher and harsher penalties
So the older generation of this country thinks they are actually doing something constructive
BUT what is the deal with Drink Drivers?

You go through a Booze Buzz – you blow over .05 – where does your car go?
Does it get impounded – NO
Do you lose it for 30 days –NO
Do you have to pay to get it towed and stored for 30 days – NO
Do you have to pay for all of the above – NO

If the Government is so intent on bringing in harsher laws for non-law abiding drivers – why aren’t these laws carried over to drink drivers?

I don’t get it?

Why does a drink driver get treated in such a different way?
